Biography | 1913 | In 1913: Biographical Sketch from the History of Cass County: In the death of Samuel Edward Howe, which occurred November 10, 1911, Logansport lost a business citizen whose activities had for many years had a direct influence upon its industrial importance. A poor young man when he came to this city, his principal capital a generous amount of ambition and energy, he so directed his abilities that he became one of the city's leading manufacturers and his industry became an integral part of the business life of Logansport. Mr. Howe was born October 8, 1842, in Dixmont, in the state of Maine, and was a son of Otis Crosby Howe, who was of English descent. After completing his education in the schools of his native state, Samuel E. Howe secured a position as traveling salesman for an eastern concern, and in this capacity made his advent in Logansport. A man of keen perception and farsightedness, he recognized the opportunity for establishing himself in business in this city, and accordingly started in a modest way to manufacture plow-handles. In the meantime, however, he continued to discharge his duties as traveling salesman, and did so until his own business had grown to such proportions that it needed all of his time and attention. As this business continued to extend over a wider and wider territory, Mr. Howe embarked in other fields of endeavor, eventually becoming interested in the lumber business, as a holder of timber lands in the South, having been induced to enter this line on account of the growing scarcity of lumber. At the time of his death his holdings were vast in a number of southern states, and since his demise his sons have handled these interests. During the war he served on the side of the Union, a member of the navy and a steward therein. On November 3, 1870, Mr. Howe was united in marriage with Miss Catherine Herrick, at Delta, Ohio, she being a daughter of James S. and Martha (Sharpstein) Herrick. Seven children were born to this union, as follows: Wilson H., who married Eva Maurson; May E., who married Dr. Terflinger; Abbie C., who married Dr. C.W. Russell; Otis C. and Laura A., who are unmarried; John C., who married Jessie Grant; and Samuel E., who married Minnie Martin. Mrs. Howe, who was the youngest of a very large family, lost her parents when she was still a child. She survives her husband and resides in her modern residence in Logansport, where she is surrounded by a wide circle of sincere friends. She is a faithful member of the Presbyterian church, and her late husband, while not a member, supported all religious movements generously and never refused any just request for financial assistance, for, having succeeded himself, he was al all times ready to help those who had been less fortunate than he. The factory that he first erected in company with his partner, J.H. Tucker, and which was the scene of his early success, is still standing. As a business man Mr. Howe was very thorough in his undertakings, was frank and open, and kind to his employees. He was a man of strict integrity, and was broad-minded and liberal in his views. He contributed in a philanthropic way to all churches. His long and honorable career stands without stain or blemish to mar it, and in his death Logansport lost one whose place will be hard to fill. |
